“Science is the Belief in the Ignorance of Expertsâ€
— Richard Feynman
Since the end of November 2007, Arctic sea ice volume is up 15% from 13,000 km³ to 15,000 km³. There has been a huge expansion of thick ice into the East Siberian Sea.
2007 2017
Arctic sea ice extent is normal, rapidly increasing, and close to the 1981-2010 average.

This is not good, I like it warm, I hate the cold!

At least they are finally talking about volume and not just extent, but look at the animation...they cherry-picked the 2007 low-volume year. It's still below all the other years on the graph.
And even the extent barely falls within the bottom edge of "normal".
So much for encouraging news. **nononono*
